A Weird Receiver Problem !

[andyin137]

I have been trying to figure out why this is happenning on my 722 HD receiver.Anytime I am watching are local ABC HD at 830 pm my receiver always reboots itself,never when I am on another channel at that time.Its getting annoying as I miss at least 7 minutes of whatever I am trying to watch ,while it resets itself.It only happens when I am on this channel.Anyone else experiencing this type of problem.Just had tech out and realigned dish ,has strong signal,and receiver is not over heating.Could something be happenning to receiver?Any suggestions ?

you need call dish and ask agent to submit a tpr to engineers for this. better yet, go online to dish chat.

It probably just doesn't like the programming on ABC. It's just letting you know

If this is your OTA tuner, then it's probably a combination of your ABC station changing modes and/or putting out illegal PSIP data in their stream, and an unsquashed bug in Dish firmware. Last year my local ABC affiliate was putting out a main HD channel at an illicit resolution for days before they corrected it. Depending upon TV tuner manufacturer, the result was anything from a blank screen to a 1/3 green screen w/squashed video on the other 2/3, to completely normal (on my USB tuner stick).
